Hi there, my name is Marilyn and I have 34+ years as an experienced licensed clinical social worker specializing in substance abuse treatment and bereavement and specialize in treating depression, adjustment disorders, and mental health related to health issues.
I hold both a bachelors and masters degree in social work.
I'm a blind, loving, funny, and sincere person. I'm imperfect and have learned to be (mostly) okay with it. Growing up with a degenerative eye disease left me with a weight on my chest of fighting what my body was doing and trying to convince everyone I was fine, when I wasn't. I think we're all trying to hide ourselves from ourselves and from others and it is complete nonsense. Every part of you is welcome, even the parts you hate about yourself or that others find difficult. Often the parts of us we fight against are there for a very good reason. Once we show those parts love and respect we can start to be okay.
My day job is as a Director of Telehealth Programming at a WA non-profit community mental health agency. I've been providing therapy for 12 years, a supervisor/director for 8 years and trained and presented on play therapy locally and nationally.
Hi. I'm glad you're here. If you've been looking for a therapist to come alongside you, be real and genuine, support you, and help you find the strength to deal with the hard stuff, you're in the right place. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with depression, trauma, or ADHD to get to the root of their challenges so they can feel better for good and find relief from painful experiences. I have experience working with teens and adults.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, heard, and accepted. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, ADHD, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington and have experience in private practice, medical social work, community mental health, and pediatric therapy. I am EMDR-trained and integrate evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed therapy, Motivational Interviewing, strengths-based therapy, and play therapy when working with children.
I work with clients across the lifespan and enjoy helping people heal from trauma, manage anxiety and stress, improve emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and build resilience. My approach is collaborative and individualized because I believe every person brings unique strengths and experiences to therapy.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing, growth, and the life you want to create.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Nampa
Searching for therapists in Nampa starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Some therapists focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, couples counseling, or other approaches, so reading each profile can help you understand how they may work with you.
In a smaller city like Nampa, local appointment options may vary by specialty, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Idaho while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. When narrowing your options, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, provides in-person or virtual sessions, and offers a free phone consultation. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus before you book.
Therapy in Nampa can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review detailed profiles, verify your benefits, and see your estimated cost before booking. You can compare therapists by specialty, availability, appointment format, and insurance fit, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
